Common mistakes & gotchas
- A zero-length string is not blank. Use IsBlank(Trim(x)) or x = "" for empty input.
- An empty text string ("") is not blank — IsBlank("") is false. Check IsBlank(Trim(txtInput.Text)) or compare with = "" to also catch whitespace-only input.
- IsBlank is true both for a genuinely null field and for a LookUp that found nothing, so you cannot tell "no data" apart from "not found" from the result alone.
